That dude probably safer in a war zone than his own country
Seems so, this was so unnecessary
You know, with all of these wonderful drivers here in the Denver metro area, I have felt the same way more than once & l am a cyclist.
This comment is Soo powerful
Play cod warzone is like this. Lol
He protects our country and they disrespect him like this
"I'm honestly afraid to get out"
- "yeah, you should be"
That's enough proof for me
@Devin Barclay bruh, he could not get his hands out there or the cops would have fired, how can u trust such agressive officers my man?
@Devin Barclay nope..you can't take risk to open the doorlock..they will shoot for "driver try to reach something"..he was right, keep your hands on sight..
@Devin Barclay This gotta be a joke

"I'm afraid of getting out"
"You should be"
Being a police officer and expecting people to be afraid of you is so so wrong.
The only correct way to interpret that is as a direct threat, which should be reason enough for imprisonment of the policeman that said that.
Dude thought he was some badass gangster. What a disgrace.
Thats the great America 😂 Your soldiers diet for nothing
The guy is brainwashed from all the George Floyd lies used to divide and conquer our American society by the marxists.(BLM)
i'm pretty sure the food is good in the army@@stylterio4053
NO ONE DESERVES TO BE TREATED LIKE THIS... We shouldnt have to be in uniform to get an ounce of human decency from public officials and citizens alike.
You sure those cops didn’t deserve to be treated like dirt
He went to court after this went viral and the judge gave him a measly 4k :)
Lets be honest, he was only fired after the video of the incident went viral. That tells us a lot.
Oh yes he can just go to the next county or state and get another position.
true, I heard this happened on December 2020. And the fact he was only fired this month is just crazy
That’s what happens every time. Only when people start talking ab it is when it something happens
@@popsybear it says the date at the top right at 0:08
@ Isaac, what this says is they were comfortable treating people blacks this way. But what goes around comes back around.
“If you wanna just chill and let this go with no charges filled, we’ll let you go”
That’s like a hostage situation.

Not like, it is and very telling.
The very same ppl who serve and protect those bad coppers gets treated like this... that copper ain't getting free Donuts anymore...
That statement alone should add kidnapping and mental torture charges.
Did nothing wrong, but well not charge you
Victim: I’m afraid to get out”. Office: “yeah you should be”. That is such a scary statement.
This makes me so sad and angry. He should sue the department and those two individuals separately for millions.
Millions lol for what? He tried for 1, got under 4k
Imagine serving this country overseas..... to be treated like this by your own cops at home. So disrespectful.
I know right. This would make me want to stay Overseas!

That cop being fired is not enough. He should have been charged with assault and misconduct. And for trying to bribe the Army Lieutenant. And the other cop should be fired for letting it happen and not intervening.
Agreed
@@tomzhangus I hope LT. Nazario can read this.
Steve nail on the head! 🙌🏽. Charges should have been brought forward
The cop should have been *sued,* he raised a gun at someone who *protests his country*
Assault? They were just stupid. Fire is enough
Imagine the sh*t these guys have gotten away with for years and years. It takes an Army Lieutenant before they actually get called on it... but this is obviously NOT the first person they've illegitimately harassed, assaulted and threatened with false crimes when they've been stood up to.
I hope this goes viral again.
That's awful for so many reasons. Poor man. If he reads;
this thank you for serving for our country.
You didn't deserve that treatment.

Did he seriously just try and bribe this guy to not press charges by saying he’ll take off the handcuffs? Talk about unprofessional . Unbelievable
I hope he takes every damn dime from the police station and county!
He actually black mailed him. They said they would ruin his career in the military if he pursued the issue.
Yup that son of a gun!!!
and denied him water to flush his eyes unless he said he would drop this.
I swear i was thinking the same thing
Soldier: “I’m honestly afraid to get out of the vehicle officer”
Cop: “You should be”
Wtf...

“Why am I being treated like this?”
The million dollar question.
Hello
Foreal.
Because you're black
If que paint myself in white i will be save from that?
Because you’re not complying to the officers command. Cops have cameras on them. The gas station certainly has cameras around. Do you think the cops were actually going to beat or shoot a us army lieutenant? Please
"I'm afraid to get out of the car"
"Yeah you should be!"
That's such a bad thing to say as an officer. Huge red flag
That’s the stuff a racist and a bully says.
@@nicholasdickens2801 what does race have anything to do with it? Evidence?
@Stop Eating My Sesame Cake the window was down. He was talking to then BEFORE they said he should be afraid. They did not tell him the reason he was being stopped. Reminder, they can see him threw the window. How is this not racial?
Bro he was treating him like a criminal wtf
@@andrewgreene5766 if you can't see race you part of the problem
that training is disgusting if they're told to handle situations like that
Police officer are obsessed with the power of their badge.
The police officers said "You should be" when he said he's afraid.while aiming a gun. Thats considered a deadly threat.
Seriously!! That blew my mind!
This misconduct should have honestly lead to jail time, the police officers had no reason to escalate that much and the treatment of the suspect was abhorent and inhumane.
We need to see that that officer goes to f****** jail how many times has he done this before the fact that he can do it so calm I guarantee you he's done some dirty s*** as his life is an officer everybody should look into every aspect of his life
Welp except when you a police sadly.
The guy drove another 2 minutes after the cop started to pull him over. The cop has no clue why the guy in the car is not stopping. He seems to be evading police by not stoping. If your the cop what do you think you would do if the person your pulling over doesn’t stop?
A police dragging an army uniform on the ground is a disgrace.
Once the cop saw black, he no longer saw the army uniform.

I’m sorry for this happening. My heart is aching watching young good men mistreated, disrespected and violated with weapons and clue soul.
It’s important to show ppl what’s been going on and unite to stop those nonsense. I want this lieutenant to know we are on ur side.
“Im honestly scared to get out”
“Yeah, you should be. Get out of the car now”
But their duty is to protect and serve?
no, the job of the police is protect and exucute orders from a judy or a politic, they are not supose to protect anybody.

@@nexussix7933 You can refuse to stop immediately when you're pulled over. That's not against the law. In fact, since it was dark, that's the safest thing to do.
@@danielr9708 You can in the USA to, but you had better be on the phone with 911. You are allowed to confirm it is a cop but the cop needs to know that is what is happening.
@@danielr9708 I agree. He refused to get out of his car when commanded. That is a crime. Police do not require reasonable suspicion or probable cause to order someone out of their vehicle the Supreme Court has said. Failure to do so is against the law.
@@nexussix7933 but they stopped him for tags but he had tags in the window?
You should be afraid to step out of a car? That doesn't sound like a cop talking that sounds like a killer talking. Saying that to a veteran as much as saying that to a civilian is unnecessary and puts good officers in a negative light. I heard that and it absolutely disgusted me.
"Thank you for your service"

No member of the military should ve treated this. I would never, ever treat a soldier like this. These police officers behavior is absolutely dispicable.
"If you want to chill and let this go, we'll take the handcuffs off" This statement alone should be sufficient to put this cop behind bars.

Fear is not the job of the police this is despicable
Another day of law enforcement officers practicing the "deescalation" tactics they're trained to uphold.
There are those who believe that if you make a person afraid you can control them. For many it's true. This why police often use fear to gain obedience.
@@deltatrianda-tria8288 In my country policemen training/education etc takes 3 years. Thinking of what and how they work is duty.
@@anonymouswatermelon5202 The thing is that "deescalation" has its place- but its far and few between in terms of realistic situations. Rather, the proper place for deescalation is when dealing with an EDP. Other than that, it rarely works to prevent a use of force.
@@wizzard4063 Well no- not quite: If I want to get you to comply with what I'm asking you to do, there's really only one way to do it, which is to use coercion. Practical Example: "If you don't put your hands behind your back right now and stop resisting, you're going to get pepper sprayed in the face and it will burn." Now, if you continue to resist and act a fool, after being warned- you simply deserve to lie in your own bed of roses. In this case, the individual was given the option to comply with the verbal command to exit the vehicle several times. What's important here is that, for officer safety as well as law enforcement reasons, this is not the proper time nor the place to go on about "your rights" and "keeping the black man down". Rather, if you THINK your so-called "rights" are being violated (which unless you're an attorney, rest assured the law doesn't give you the rights you THINK you have- this is an area where by all means you should do your research and know the actual law as opposed to myth of what the majority of people erroneously THINK the law is), your sole recourse of action is to file a lawsuit. Even if your rights are being violated, it doesn't give you the legal right to resist arrest, to engage in obstruction, etc. because these things are, in and of themselves, crimes without legal exception. The exception is those FEW states (only two states have a law to this effect to my knowledge, Oklahoma being one of them). that explicitly allow a person to use reasonable force, but never deadly force, to terminate "excessive" force- BUT even these states require a person to cease resisting once the excessive force is in fact terminated. The big problem with this is that the force used must actually be excessive, not merely interpreted as such by you- meaning the federal district court had better damn well agree with your position and version of the facts.
The audacity the police officer had when he told him not report the incident. I hope the lawsuit goes well for the lieutenant

Just a comment. The entire thing is horrible.. should have never happened. but.. to this comment the seat belt (shoulder belt) covers the rank on the individual's uniform sometimes.

Two criminals in police uniforms harassing a service member. Completely unacceptable. As well as being dismissed, they should be charged for falsifying their report as well.
And assault mate. Aiming a gun with no reason at someone and pepper spraying them is assault.

Asking him to get out of the car is fine. But saying you should be scared is insane
Exactly! Not de-escalating the driver’s alleged fears was something that clearly cost Joe Gutierrez his job.
•
It still doesn’t change the fact that the driver is a narcissistic, cop hating, oath-breaker who violated three Virginia statutes from beginning to end of that felony traffic stop. He should have been arrested.
This was sad. The officer knew he messed up “ if you don’t report this I will get you a bottle of water” both officers needed to have been fired and in jail for assault.
The younger guy is still in training. Watch how he reacts throughout the video. You can tell he knows it's wrong, but doesn't want to challenge his FTO.
Why both?
@@bellatordei3440 pretty self explanatory. If you see someone doing something wrong you stop them. At no point did the officer call for a supervisor or superior. He completely backed his partner up. He should loose he job to.
@@nunyabizness9400 he didn’t say anything to the other officer. What was the reason for all of this. He did not stop the assault of a unarmed person during a traffic stop. He never called for a superior officer nor did he point out the he could see the temp tags. His “ignorance” isn’t an excuse. This shouldn’t have happened.
Crazy how he’s only allowed water and to be treated as a human if it benefits them scumbags
When a police officer is fired, they should be banned from working at another police department.
They aren't?
@@dennisnirmark1353 Nope. They move to other places and get hired.
@@sueann9065 But doesn't it get on his record, that he was fired from the police force? I was fired for many years ago. And it took me 3 and a half year before i could get hired again. Because i was fired and didn't quit on my own terms. It was very difficult to get hired. No one wanted to hire me.
@@dennisnirmark1353 From previous cases I've seen, their records don't stop them from being employed. It also doesn't cause them to be fired while on the job. The officer that beat a man with Down Syndrome in Miami had multiple violent offenses on his police record. Other cases, the officer moved to another State or city within their current State and was hired despite being fired for excessive force.
@@sueann9065 Jesus christ! What case was that?
What a disgraceful show of force.
Damn, cops needs to lose their job and be fired for treating that man that way that is a shame. If y’all don’t do nothing about this this is bad justice for this young man that serving our country.
Amazing that so many of the comments are just “he shouldn’t be treated this way as a service member”. While that is completely true, he shouldn’t be treated like this as a damn human being.
Exactly. Most videos on RUclips about police misuse of power have loads of dislikes but this is basically one of the only ones that doesn't, I think it's because it is a service member that is the victim. But no-one should be treated like this, not just service men and women
amen
Word!
This comment should've been pinned! Very well said!!🙏🏽😊👌🏽
no living being should be treated like this
These comments.. so you lot would be okay if a regular person was treated like this just because they arent in the army?
That's terrible to treat a A
lieutenant like that. Man this world is so corrupt
The fact he said "I'm afraid to get out of my car"
And the cop said "you should be"
Is truly disgusting, you shouldn't fear the cops when there supposed to be there to help, and protect but the way things are, I'd be afraid to
YEAH...now they forgot about Protect and Serve 's swearing
Yeah, that made my blood boil. And the tone of voice they were using, trying to sound like barking dogs to intimidate him.
@@autumnphillips151 The man they fired (because of the lawsuit, don't kid yourself) de-escalated the situation from gun's drawn, to taser, to pepper spray despite the fact the man was non-compliant. At one point he tried to open the car door and the man closed back with his elbow. Pepper spray was appropriate and could've been completely avoidable if the man wasn't such a jackwagon from the start. He drove a mile and half with police lights behind him before he pulled over, refused to get out of his car (after being told about 15 times), refused every directive given to him (odd for a soldier who should understand how to obey a command), wouldn't allow the officer to open the door, wouldn't unbuckle his seatbelt after being told to numerous times, and to put a pretty little bow on everything he files a lawsuit despite the fact they let him off with no charges. It's also worth noting that he had a gun by his right leg the entire time, so yea...so sorry you're feelings got hurt by the tone of their voice.
Ride the
Lighting
@@mattraisbeck3701 My feelings weren’t hurt at all, it just made me want to cook up some bacon.
“I’m honestly scared to get out” “yeah you should be!” Wtf?!?!?!
Stfu
@@sikjuice8620 stfu
I literally saw your comment in the original video
@@sikjuice8620 stfu
THANKYOU
one thing that everyone ignores - that temporary plates were behind tinted window and barely visible. Can anyone distinguish numbers there? I can't. About how they treated the driver, is another question.
The cop should be charged with felony assault
*How it should've went:*
"We pulled you over because there was no plate but, we can see that there's one on the back window. Thank you for your service and have a great night."
I think it was staged
Ikr
Thank you
@@KD-xj6yj of course you would think that, to conveniently dismiss this because that narrative will fit your view of the world
plain and simple
"he was driving slowly towards the gas station" tf am I supposed to do? Go full speed then just hit the brake as soon as I get close? Tf isn't that reckless driving which is also a crime?!
Right!? Dumbest excuse I've ever heard
Damn if you do, damn if you don't
I was thinking the same thing
🤣🤣
Basically, you shouldn't leave your house. You are safe then.
The two officers should be off the street before they harm someone else.
So the police was targeting him all along
